Parallel centerline extraction on the GPU
Centerline extraction is important in a variety of visualization applications including shape analysis, geometry processing, and virtual endoscopy. Centerlines allow accurate measurements of length along winding tubular structures, assist automatic virtual navigation, and provide a path-planning system to control the movement and orientation of a virtual camera. However, efficiently computing c...
متن کاملGPU-Based Airway Segmentation and Centerline Extraction for Image Guided Bronchoscopy
Bronchoscopy is an important minimal-invasive procedure for both diagnosis and therapy of several lung disorders, including lung cancer. However, narrow airways and complex branching structure increases the difficulty of navigating to the target site inside the lungs. It is possible to improve navigation by extracting a map of the airways from CT images and tracking the tip of the bronchoscope....
متن کاملFlux driven automatic centerline extraction
We present a fast, robust and automatic method for computing centerline paths through tubular structures for application to virtual endoscopy. The key idea is to utilize a skeletonization algorithm which exploits properties of the average outward flux of the gradient vector field of a Euclidean distance function from the boundary of the structure. The algorithm is modified to yield a collection...
متن کاملNear Real-time Road Centerline Extraction
In this paper a new GPS/INS/CCD integrated system for precise monitoring of highway center and edge lines is presented. The system has been developed at The Ohio State University (OSU) for the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT). The positioning component of the system is based on tightly integrated GPS/INS (dual frequency GPS receiver and a high-accuracy strapdown INS), and the imaging co...
متن کاملParallel Sorting on GPU Clusters
It is becoming more common to install modern graphics cards on small to medium size commodity clusters. In addition to applications such as display walls and CAVE environments, graphics cards can be used as dedicated coprocessors that can run certain parallel algorithms very quickly. Sorting has been long recognized as an important algorithm in terms of both mathematical analysis and a way to j...
